That's OK. There's already been discussion about that bug which IMHO 
isn't a security hole. I disagree with the people who tagged that bug 
'security' but I won't start a tag war either. I still wait someone 
explains me what this bug exaclty compromises, except losing your 
slashdot password, which in the worst case would lead to someone 
faking your id in a thread and compromise your karma. Little more.
